"A Trip to ChinatQwn" bas been, u is well known, the hit of the London tea-son. It affords a bright, merry, and intensely funny evenings entertainment, and th-e cast a strong combination of well-known oomedia.ua and burlesque artistes. The original scenery, dresses, kc-, will be brought from Toole's and the Strand Theatres, and the entire performance will be identical in every detail with the recent London representations, GRAND THEATRE. One of the prettiest dramas upon the Englk-h stage will be presented this week at the Grand Theatre, Cardiff. M. Auguste Van Bier.e, the actor-musician, will take his original character Theatre, Cardiff. M. Auguste Van Bier-e, the actor-musician, will take his original character in "The Broken Melody." The sc-nsation produced on the occasion of his last visit to Cardiff was such that the Grand will sure to be thronged each evening in the week. It may he remembered that the 'cello playing of M. August-e Van Biene tdien he was last in Cardiff brought tears to the eyes of many "ho heard Ü. As a, histrionic piece, even without its musical accompaniments, "The Broken Melody" could not fail to command success; but with such music added, no wonder it has for so long drawn such large and enthusiastic audience?. On December 2 M. Augusts Van Biene will t'i' the Swansea New Theatre and ttar Opera House- THE EMPIRES. CARDIFF. A very full and « very diversified pro- gramme has been issued for the local Empire. This week a great attraction w:ll be the singing of eight Welshmen, late of the P.&ondda Glee I Society, who commence nn important, engage- ment shortly in London. Me^rs. Donald- Bon Brothers and Ardell will give funny sketches from the Zoo and the entertainment will be one of the funniest that -has been witnessed lately at the I Empire. The Indian Princrss, Nala Dama- janti, from the Palace Theatre, London, will go through a wonderfully se national perfor- mance with the giant serpents. The oih-or artistes are Mr. Arthur Reeoe (character come- dian), Wood and Beasley fcomedv vocaljstc), Ada Dell (songstress and dancer), Wtiter King (comedian), and Miss Jessie Prince (comedy songstress). NEWPORT. A varied rrrograjntne has been issued for t.hs present week at Mr. Oswald StoTs popular present week at Mr. Oswald StoTs popular hall at Newport.

The aretes include Mr. Edyrin Ronie. a most popular artiste; the Clavton Twins, and the Messrs. Wood and Willis. in their original sketches; Mr. Charles Seel, the quaintest of comedians, and others, each of whom is also a host in himself. I THE PANOPTICON. One of the principal features at the Card-flf Panopticon is now the crystal maze. Pre- viouslv it was nn ordinary puzzle ground, but a complete transformation has row taken place, and it has become a veritable palace of de- light. The old sombre black pillars have given place to festooned pillars of gold, and the maze, is now briHiantlv illuminated with electric light. As the visitor enters a scene of dnz~lmg splendour me-t- his gaze, a.nd, t-pon reaching the centre of the maze, he sees around him myriads of electrio lights and prismatic colours and gold. It is impossible to describe the wonderfully charming effect which thp.c:e coloured Hpht". floral festoons, pnd glided pillars, re-produced indefinitely bv the cunningly-arranged mirrors, produce upon the eye. It is a vision of splendour and brilliance, redolent of the "Arabian Nights, and no visitor to the Panopticon should miss the f-ipht. The transformation has be^n effected at considerable exp nse, but we feel assured that the maze, in its new guise, will prove so successful that it will recoup Mr. ftoll for the money he has expended in im- proving it. For the present week a srfxong variety company has been engaged. am. SNAZELLE AT CARDIFF.

The Lemberg pianist, ha-s. of course, long been favourably known here, if only by report, for England is one of the last countries to be visiter! by him. Like so many more of his class, Herr "Rosenthal played in public at a very early age. When but ten he made his tirst appe-ra.noe in the capacity of executant, and at fourteen had already- given a highly successful concert in Vienna. After studying under Joseffy.

The etrugle between Miss Harwoo^ end Mdlle. Lisette Mai-ton drew crowds of spectators, whilst Mrs. Grace, had she not sustained a fall on the first day, would have I inside *he race still more exciting. When the rnc1 rtg started on Saturday there were many spectators. The ladies were divided in*o two envisions, riding three hours and a. half pa eh day. Interest naturally focu-;eed in the last two detachments. The first, finished with Md.e. C'a^noe having 3sr; miW eighs laps to her credit. At nine o'clock the second divi- sion took the track. It included MLis Far- vcod, who had than ridden 344 miles eight laps; Mdlli. Li otte, 3*2 miles Lwo laps p..ud five ethers, who^e tfiajtcft?, ba.yi-.ig aocidents, wore ail. The team started off at a emart p&ce, with Miss Hartvood leading. In the second lap ilrs. Grace, who had but 301 miles 7-e~o:rlr-d, took premier position, z.nd it ?.t or.ee- hecame apparent thd her task was to pace her countrywoman. Close behind the latter lady was Mdlle. Lisette, Jrerally hanging into the wheel of her only opponent. Twenty-five minutes after starting Miss Harwood bettered th'" 355 miles of Mdlle. Can nee, and from this rvoment, all going well, the ra.ce was hers. The. order named was maintained for over an hour. Lisette had been making efforts to take the lead, and the speed became tremen- dous, at one time exceeding eighteen miles ati Kour. Finding her exertions inoperative, Lisette called in strategy to her aid. Easing the t>ace *or a few minutes, she bided her chance, and then, suddenly, at five minutes past ten, amidst great exc;tement, she sud- denly shot ahead. Harwood fied all she knew 1n regain the forfeits position. Mdlle. ] -isette was 26 laps behind Harwood. ajid hsr Dlan war- evidently to tire down the English rider. The plucky French lady desperately exerted every nerve to pick up her laps, but Mies Harwood rode wisely, keeping her c strength a.nd stamina well in hand, a^d at twenty minutes to eleven the ra/v was closed, Jewing her winner with 371 miles two laps. HK others were in the following order Mdlle. Lisette, 368 miles six laps; Mdlle. Can- nne, 355 miles eight laps; Mdlle. Maroelle. 352 miles four laps; Mdlle.

-? LATE CANOIS JAMES BROWS. DEATH OF A WELSHMAN IN AUS- TRALIA. The West Australian papers, just to hand, announce the death on October 10 last, at the age of 75, of a- W elsh clergyman, in the person of Canon James Brown. M.A., the oldest mem- ber of the Anglican clergy in We-teru Aus- trii'a. The late Canon Brown graduated at Trinity College. Cambridge, in 1845, and from 1847 to 1852 wrs curtae of Nirberth, Pem. br keshire. In 1853 he accepted a Government c-haplaincv to the then convict establishment in Western Australia- and later on, ir; 1858, be.iame Archdeacon of Perth, holding 'he latter olloe for thirty years, until failing- health com- pelled him to relinquish it. From the news- paper accounts no clergyman seems to have been hek. in higher esteem in the colony, and h's opirion on all Church questions carried the greatest weight in the diocesan synod. Canon Br iri was a native of Haverfordwest, being a brother of the late Mr. John Brown, of Market-street, in that town.

ROMAN CATHOLICISM- A SUCCESSOR TO THE LATE MONSIGN'O? WILLIAMS. The Rev. Alphonsus Van den Reuvel (St. David's Catholic Church. Cardiff) has been appointed head priest of that church, in suc- cession to the late Mgr. Williams. The post of vica.r-general. which was also he*.d by Mgr. Williams, has not yet been filled up. NEW STATUES FOR ST. DAVID'S CHURCH. The chancel of St. David's Catholic Churcn, Cardiff, has just been enriched bv the addition of statues of the Sacred Heart and of the B'.es^ed Virgin and Child, from t,he. designs of Messrs.

TIN-PLATE TEA CHESTS- ARRIVAL OF A CONSIGNMENT AT SWANSEA. Councillor James Jones, the well-known ■wholesale r-r^cer, of Goat-street, Swansea, has just rece: d a large consignment of Indian tea, packed neatly and securely in large tin- plate chests, oach holding one cwt. The tea, has been received in a perfect condition, which was not always the case with the old wooden chests. The top and bottom of the chests are of wood, but the four sides are made of on* strong piece of tin, capable of standing any amount of rough usage. If this mode of pack- ing were universally adopted, the market for local tin-plates would possibly become as brisk as ever. The chests Mr. Jones has received all contain one cwt.. but be sees no reason why smaller quantities of 501b. and 601b., and even less, could not be similarly packed with advan- tage. As president of the Swansea Grocers' Association, Mr. Jones intends to bring the matter forward at the next meeting, and to recommend to all grocers in Swansea and W ales in particular, and in the country gene- rally, what he considers to be the packing of the future.

Saw Her Lover's Body, GHASTLY FIND K.VOE BY MISS ALMA CfiOI CH. Something of a Mystery, but "he Girl's Father is Suspected of the Murder. Miss Alma Crouch, the seventeen year old daughter of William O. Crouch, a prominent county farmer, in Kentucky, was walking in her father's orchard wher she suddenly struck her f(-et against the body of a dead man lying in the high weeds, and fell over it, She was struck with horror when she recognised the face as that of her lover, Doc Ellii:gtc:i. A few days ago Ellington had a difficulty with her father and th; old geutltman had ordered him off the premises, and in-t to oome to gee his daughter again. They met ihe next day, when Ellington was talking across the fence to Miss Alma. The girl's, father attempted violence to the boy, and he drew his pistol and fired at the old gentelman, the bullet strik- ing him in the leg. He was put to bed and is thought not to have been out of his room since. The body of the young man showed that life had been cxtinc; for some time. Both eyes v/ere blown out, the killing having beeti done with a double-barrelled shot-gun. Fully forty shot had lodged in his face and head. There was no gun near. thus disposing of the theory of suicide. The sheriff visited the som.e. but no arrests were made. Crouch is in his bid, and his family •say he has not moved from Irs room since the shooting a few days ago, which has been kept quiet. Miss Alma. will not talk. She fainted after a series of sceanu:, caused by her fright, and vi- picked jp by some of the farm hands and taken to the he use. The neighbours believe come of the boys working on Crouch's place arc implicated in the killing, but since these proved to the satisfaction of the sheriff tha'1 ihey had not been on the farm for a week he did not arrest any one of them. ? .1'" -? -?

RIVAL WELSH CHOIRS. To the Editor of the "Evening Express."

The idea of the two best choirs in th° whole world fight- ing for £ 25. and tti, two b»st pugilist- getting a stake of from £?'jf1 to £300! (2) The two rho-r; sl;"n do the fzHin., and otber; will have the bone. (3) The friendly spirit between the choirs should nd be broken. V- hy should 'ns the two choirs be pitted against OD" another, like two fighting1 cocks, and by so doing ruin. perha-* for pvar. the spirit of concord which now i'i-'>t? between them? (4i The motive ia not wrthv of their talents and time, the peaoe- ful. Christian spirits of "Gw.in Gwlad v Gain.and the sacredr.rs- of music.
